    10/29 GDT - Red Wings 4 @ Capitals 2

    Two minutes for playing defense. Enough with all of these calls.

    I thought he was going to be gushing blood the way his head snapped back. Definitely a high-stick, but nice sell job.

    This league is a complete joke. The officials have absolutelty no accountability at all. There's no defense to continue to have this level of officiating every season. Far too many games are influenced by the dudes in stripes and not in uniforms. Let the players decide games.

    Weiss sent down to GR- conditioning assignment

    Weiss must really be in the doghouse because Andrej Nestrasil has not been good at hockey so far. The Wings desperately need top-six players/talent, so I'm still hoping Weiss figures it out and gets a shot again soon.

    TANK IT! 2014-2015 Season

    Holland deserves credit for building organizational depth through the draft, but make no mistake he tried to overpay for UFA's and just failed. Whether you think that worked out for the better is another story. He overpaid for Quincey anyways, so that has to count.The Wings still need a top four d-man and goal-scoring winger. They didn't attempt to sign Niskanen, Boyle and Ehrhoff because they thought they were set there. While I am impressed with their start so far, it doesn't change what is needed to get to the next level yet.

    10/23 GDT : Penguins 3 at Red Wings 4 (OT)

    Well, Z certainly has and Franzen before he got hurt. But yeah, not so much from everyone else yet. Tatar hasn't played poorly so far, though I am a little disappointed he has just one goal.

    Anyone else think the tying goal might have been offside? Looked pretty close live and then I really thought it might be on replay.

    57 minutes were agonizing and then it got fun. Kronwall was terrific tonight, so was DeKeyser. Jimmy probably had a couple soft goals against, but he had some huge saves too in the first when it could have gotten real ugly. Never a dull moment with this team.

    Wow! What effort by Z to get that puck to Abby. Zetterberg is unreal. His determination is just on a completely different level.

    How do Glendening and Miller get a shift before Nyquist and Tatar?

    10/23 GDT : Penguins 3 at Red Wings 4 (OT)

    Probably about the same as actually tying this up.

    10/23 GDT : Penguins 3 at Red Wings 4 (OT)

    Way too many OT games already this season, but what a relief to get there tonight.

    This team has serious flaws, but man do they compete hard. You have to love their tenacity.

    Terrific pass by DeKeyser. This is such a tease.

    10/23 GDT : Penguins 3 at Red Wings 4 (OT)

    Ugh, Nestrasil again showing he doesn't belong. Get rid of the puck.

    10/23 GDT : Penguins 3 at Red Wings 4 (OT)

    I'm happy the PK has been great, but really shouldn't it be with eight fourth liners dressed every night?
  17. GoWings1905

    10/23 GDT : Penguins 3 at Red Wings 4 (OT)

    Pretty wide discrepancy in talent on these two teams since 2009. Nestrasil is an AHL player. Enough with this failed tryout.
  18. GoWings1905

    10/23 GDT : Penguins 3 at Red Wings 4 (OT)

    No, because Tyler Myers still stinks and it has been a whopping six games for Jurco. That would be a bad deal today and a terrible trade in two years.
  19. GoWings1905

    10/23 GDT : Penguins 3 at Red Wings 4 (OT)

    Nah, after four years now it makes perfect sense to keep forcing a fourth liner into a top line role.

    10/23 GDT : Penguins 3 at Red Wings 4 (OT)

    Abby has no scoring touch whatsoever.

    10/23 GDT : Penguins 3 at Red Wings 4 (OT)

    Could have been much worse than down 2-1. Smith is being under utilized. No PP time and stuck on the third pairing with Kindl. I don't know why Babs went away from Smith and DeKeyser.

    10/23 GDT : Penguins 3 at Red Wings 4 (OT)

    I'm glad we keep scratching a former 50-60 point player and then continue scoring one or two goals per game.
  23. GoWings1905

    10/23 GDT : Penguins 3 at Red Wings 4 (OT)

    This is utter domination. Babs changes the forward lines every shift, but won't touch the defense pairings.
  24. GoWings1905

    10/23 GDT : Penguins 3 at Red Wings 4 (OT)

    Pretty sure that was the same exact play Getzlaf made on Kronwall.

    10/23 GDT : Penguins 3 at Red Wings 4 (OT)

    Pavel probably should have backhanded that puck on goal instead of passing behind him. Still, that was a good shift from that line until it ended up in the other net.
